About

My name is Markus Reuter but you can call me “roitsch”. I am a 28-year old student from Hamburg, Germany. In the last years I was living in several cities like Regensburg (Bavaria), New York or Düsseldorf (where I grew up). I am currently living in Hamburg and studying Educational Science at the University of Hamburg and ePedagogy Design – Visual Knowledge Building at the School of Art and Design Helsinki. Besides my studies I am working for a little creative agency – elbdudler. And I am always interested in realizing projects and ideas, like #walkingtoworktoday, IgniteHamburg or Kitchen Guerilla. My passions are design, inspiration and sharing. I love to create ideas and share them with others in order to make these ideas reality.

If you have some interesting projects or ideas you want to share, please get in contact.

My blog

better taste than sorry shall be a source of inspiration. Basically I write about anything that inspires me. This could be a project, event, infographic, street art, audiovisuals or any other things. The categories are and will not be limited, as long as they are created in a reflective and creative way. I concentrate on thought-provoting projects, videos and any other kind of things that implement “outside the box”-ideas.
This blog adresses to anybody, who has similar interests. That means, who likes to be infected by good ideas and is seeking for inspiration. I hope I can arouse your interest, point out to interesting things, and inspire you.

I know, usually there is no accounting for taste, but I want to ask you to comment and discuss my posts. I will be happy about any comments, suggestions for other topics or links to things I could like.

You may ask yourself: Why “better taste than sorry“? After brainstorming for a while how I could entitle my weblog, I came upon the idea that basically my blog came into being, because I care about almost everything. I wanted to collect things I like and create a platform to discuss these things. In my opinion there is nothing as bad as carelessness. And nothing is as boring as having no opinion or not expressing his/her opinion. Coined by the phrase “better safe than sorry” “better taste than sorry” stands for my statement that I care about things and I express my opinion about these things (which reflects my taste).
